"If I could give 4 stars I would. The gentleman bid 350 ft of fence where the posts and fencing wire was already supplied. Only thing he has the purchase was 24 T posts, fasteners, gates and concrete. Total cost averaged 1500 in materials with a tractor rental. He charged internally 7500. My disabled mom agreed and signed the contract unbeknownst to us. Upon inspection from my son in law the posts were not put in the ground properly and we're loose, partly from not tamping, and part from not going past 2ft in the ground on 6ft out. He took materials we paid for, and got a refund. We've yet to see the $$ for. He pays his employees like a third-world country as well. We were also advised that he is not coming back to the jobsite. He has been paid $5000 already."

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

The signs of rot depend on the type. Dry rot looks like cube-shaped cracks with a fluffy white, cotton-like texture. Wood with dry rot may also have a strong, musty smell. 

Signs of other types of rot include wood that looks mushy or has black spots. The wood may crumble or give way when touched.

Most two-person porch swings are rated to hold up to 500 pounds or more. However, each swing manufacturer has its own recommended weight limits, with some as low as 250 pounds while others are as high as 800 pounds. Always double-check the manufacturer’s guide and stay within the recommended range when in doubt.

Learning how to repair rotted wood is something that you can do after stopping existing wood rot from spreading. After removing the wood rot, you can put new wood in place of the ruined wood or use wood putty to repair minor damage. However, because wood rot is difficult to eradicate without expert help, you may want a professional to do it. Do not attempt repairs in the area until you are certain that all the damaged wood and signs of wood rot are gone.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

When it comes to rotten deck wood, there really is no fixing it in the traditional sense—it needs to be removed and replaced. While you can certainly do this yourself, we don’t recommend it as some of the issues causing wood to rot could have spread throughout your deck and an untrained eye may not be able to notice. The good news is that replacing deck wood isn’t the most expensive project, and can seriously increase the quality and aesthetics of your home.
